Human follicular fluid lc-ms/ms

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to reveal if peptide profiling of individual human follicular fluid could become a new non-invasive predictive biomarker for oocyte quality, and attempted to discover candidate biomarkers for fertilization. In biomarker studies, because of normal clinical or biological variabil-ity, candidate biomarkers need to be validated across a large number of samples. To ensure that the discovered biomarkers are truly associated with oocytes quality and fertilization rather than the result of variability, three independent experiments were designed with a large population. In the present study, we investigated the peptide profile of human follicular fluid with fertilized and non-fertilized oocytes from patients undergoing in vitro fertilization using proteomic analysis with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. We additionally determined the protein identi-ties of the discovered peptide biomarkers as a first step toward understanding the pathways in which they may function.

<h4>Background</h4>Human follicular fluid (FF) is a unique biological fluid in which the oocyte develops in vivo, and presents an optimal source for non-invasive biochemical predictors. Oocyte quality directly influences the embryo development and hence, may be used as a predictor of embryo quality. Peptide profiling of FF and its potential use as a biomarker for oocyte quality has never been reported.<h4>Methods</h4>This study screened FF for peptide biomarkers that predict the outcome of in vi ...[more]

Project description:In mammals, the capacity of the female germ cell, the oocyte, to develop into embryo is acquired throughout meiotic maturation. Immature oocyte cannot be fertilized while mature oocyte is apt to accept spermatozoa and to develop an embryo. In a follicle, the oocyte is surrounded by mural granulosa cells (GC) and is physically and metabolically coupled with specialized granulosa cumulus cells (CC) which play an important role in oocyte maturation and fertilization. Factors expressing in GC and CC during maturation may reflect the oocyte quality, i.e. its capacity to be fertilized and assure early embryo development. However, the modifications of the content and the amount of peptide/proteins in the oocyte and the surrounding CC during oocyte maturation are mostly unknown and so there is not an accurate way of evaluating/monitoring how different in vitro maturation (IVM) protocols being in use in assisted reproduction technologies, can affect the process. In this context, Intact Cell MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry (ICM-MS) was applied to bovine follicular cells (bovine single oocytes, cumulus cells and granulosa cells) in order to characterize proteomic changes that occur in the follicle during female gamete development. In order to characterize finely endogenous molecular species observed on ICM-MS profiles and to identify markers of interest with their post-translational modifications, we carried out top-down proteomic on the different follicular cells from oocyte, oocyte-cumulus complexes, cumulus cells and granulosa cells protein extracts. Prior to top-down MS using a dual linear ion trap Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometer LTQ Orbitrap Velos, depending on the amount of available biological material, we employed three analytic strategies as a direct infusion, a mono-dimensional liquid chromatography (µLC-1D-MS/MS) and an off-line multi-dimensional liquid chromatography combining four fractionations (based on reverse phase or gel filtration LC) to µLC-MS/MS. Here, we deposited our dataset from µLC-1D-MS/MS (analyses of oocytes, oocyte-cumulus complexes, cumulus cells and granulosa cells protein extracts) and MDLC-MS/MS (analyses of granulosa cells protein extract).

Project description:Zygotic repair of paternal genome is a key event after fertilization. Spermatozoa accumulate DNA single and double strand breaks during spermatogenesis and can suffer additional damage before fertilization by different factors, including cryopreservation. Fertilization with DNA damaged spermatozoa (DDS) is considered to promote implantation failures and abortions, but also long term effects in the progeny that could be related to a defective repair. Base excision repair (BER) pathway is considered the most active in zygotic DNA repair, but healthy oocytes contain enzymes for all repairing pathways. In this study the effects of the inhibition of the BER pathway in the zygote, were analyzed on the progeny obtained after fertilization with differentially DDS. Massive gene expression (37.394 transcripts) was analyzed after hatching using microarrays. Trout oocytes are easily fertilized with DDS and the high prolificacy allows obtaining live progeny even with a high rate of abortions. Results showed that DDS, even if increased the number of abortions, provided normal progeny. Nevertheless, the zygotic inhibition of PARP, upstream the BER pathway, result 810 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) after hatching. DEGs are related to DNA repair, apoptosis, telomere maintenance or growth and development, revealing a scenario of impaired DNA damage signalization and repair. Down-regulation of the apoptotic cascade was noticed, suggesting a selection of embryos tolerant to residual DNA damage during embryo development. Our results suggest a high zygotic capacity to repair paternal DNA damage and reveals changes in the progeny from defective repairing zygotes whose long term consequences should be deeply analyzed Gene expression was analyzed in trout larvae one day after hatching obtained from differentially DNA damaged sperm with or without zygotic inhibition of the BER pathway of DNA repair. Eggs from two females were pooled and fertilized with sperm fresh (F samples) or cryopreserved using different procedures (LDL and EY samples). Ten min later two batches from each sperm kind were treated with 3-aminobenzamide (3AB) to inhibit the PARP activity. Ten larvae per each one of the 6 treatments (3sperm kind x 2 zygotic treatments) were analyzed after pooling RNA. Four replicates per treatment were done fertilizing eggs from the same females with sperm from 4 different males.
